Where in the World do Newport News Travel & Tourism dollars come from?
Newport News has developed a unique Tourism Awareness Contest...
Did you know that each U.S. household would pay $995 MORE in taxes each year without the tax dollars (revenue) generated from the travel and tourism industry? That would pay for a lot of food, gasoline and entertainment for your family!
This $1.6 trillion industry creates jobs and attracts arts and entertainment to our community, which enhances the quality of life for all. To celebrate National Travel and Tourism Week, Newport News Tourism announces our annual "Where in the World?" contest.
Newport News City Council and City Manager assist in the clues, appearing in the Daily Press and online here. You could be a winner, drawn from all those who correctly match the clues to where the travel and tourism dollars come from!
Contest begins on Monday May 11, and ends on Wednesday May 27 at 5:00 p.m. Open to all U.S. residents 18 and over; here's how to enter.
